Xenogears introduces one of the most unique play style ever. The storyline had a very great theme in it. If you've never heard about this game back in 1998, but have played the other Xeno game, "Xenosaga" for the PS2 then you have to try and get this game. You may even love it more than saga. For the storyline, if you've played saga then it's pretty much the same, it focuses on mankind and an alternate being, I think it was Uudo in saga and the one in gears was more like an alien lifeform called Deus, and their struggles with the Zohar. In both games the characters use mech's or giant robots to battle the enemy and also play a role in the main storyline due to the Anima Relics used in the mechs.Also the theme is very religious to the bible. I will not get into more details and spoil everything for the people who has not played this game. Battle system: There exists two battle choices-either using characters or their mechs. character battle-the character battle in xenogears is one of the best turn based battle system in most of the turn based battle system RPG's ever. It took out the command select menu of attack for the button combination attack to perform the character's deathblows. The basic of it is that the Triangle, Square, and X buttons are the main usage for attack, there is a select combination to perform and the character has several deathblows that will please the player throughout the game. There also exist's magic elements called ether, their usage is to damage the enemy with elements of nature and can hit multiple enemies too. There exist an AP gauge that can be built up to 24 points and can be used to combine the character's normal deathblows together and damage the enemy with a fast combination of your own choosing. Mech battles: You can also use the character's preferred mech in combat known as Gears. The Gears battle is similar to the character style with the same button combination, but also exists a fuel gauge(like gas for a car). Gears battle their exist level 0, 1, 2, and 3 attacks. You first start off with the level 0 with only one attack with either of the buttons mentioned before, for Triangle being level 1, Square 2, and X being 3. After the first phase when it's that certain character's turn again his gear's level of attack will increase, which will allow him to combine two button for the next attack. With each time of level 0 attack then the level of the next attack increases. With a higher level of attack the stronger the gear's combination attack will be, but also uses more fuel. This game is a very good one, but also due to the very bad english voice acting(for not expanding the dialogue of the characters so when the character's mouth moves then the voice comes out and the voice end when the mouth stops moving). Due to this it seems really weird to see the character's saying "That's right, I'm a coward! and still see the character's mouth moving. The problem of the is that the japanese language differs greatly from the english because of this it is harder to actually say what the character are saying, which this means that their english dialogue needs to be expanded. Overall it is a very good game. If Xenosaga is enjoyable, then this one is way more.Vollständige Rezension lesen
Xenogears. A great plotline. Arguably one of the greatest RPG's, let alone any PS1 RPG. At least according to me. It's also an uncommon game, in which most used games cost $40-100. The plot line consists of an orphaned boy, left in a village, in which after about 20 minutes of the game, you will learn that the game takes drastic changes. Not only does the game consist of anime cutscenes, it also has great battle layout, as well as many plot twists, and enough annoyances of such to jerk your brain. The cons of the game are small but enough do drive someone away. It is a very long game. After sidequests my first playthrough, it came to roughly 96 hours. Not only that, the second disc is very plain, consisting of only 10 hours of the gameplay. The graphics are rather horrendous too, because of the fact it's a 1997 produced game. All in all though, the game itself is great. Pros-great battling, plotline, cutscenes, mini-quests, mini-games. Cons- Time consumed playing, lack of content in second disc, cost. I rate this a 8/10. Thanks for reading.Vollständige Rezension lesen
I have been searching for this game since 2011 and haven't had any luck. Peices were too high and case was cracked, missing the 2nd disc, or just incomplete. Until, finally I found it good condition and everything was like brand new and in a really good price. Now I'm playing this game endlessly.

One of the best squaresoft titles to come out for PS1, the story is excellent and the gameplay is turn based …pretty much what you expect from a PS1 game. If you’re a fan of the original FF7 then you’ll love this
